CURATOR’S TOUR OMOSHIROGARA WITH MARIKO MIKAMI, MIWA NEGORO AND ROGER M. BUERGEL

Mariko Mikami: Sunday, 30.01.2022 at 14:30 (Japanese)

Miwa Negoro: Sunday, 30.01.2022 at 16:00 (English)

Roger M. Buergel: Friday, 04.02.2022 at 16:00 (German)

The curators will guide you through the exhibition Omoshirogara, which we present on the occasion of 160 years of German-Japanese friendship. The kimonos from the collection of Yoshiko Inui (JP) tell the dramatic story of Japanese modernity – from the arrival of the «black ships» that forced the island kingdom to trade and exchange with the West in the mid-19th century to the reinvention of Japan as an industrial nation and military power that met the West on equal terms in the early 20th century.
